can someone make me up to date on these "chips"

The chips to track stats.. do I seriously have to pay $60 a chip for each gun I want to register? Is it not optional? I could give a **** less about my stats, im a team player.. dont care about my own kill count.

The guys I am playing with didnt even get their stats from the Event they played in...

Also, does anyone know the actual date for chicago 2013? I cant find it anywhere and need to get work off asap.

Certain guns use the same harness. I know Dye and PE use the same harness, so you can shoot a Dm as your main and an ego as a backup and switch the chip out of each gun as needed. However, if you have a luxe and a G6R, then you need two different chips.

chips are "mandatory"
there were many players at HB that used guns without chips in them with no consequence. not to mention those chips are a piece of ****, in eight games at HB virtue says i took less than 900 shots

My entire team shoot Axes.. Once they were in the gun then just leave them.
You may have to change the battery more often, but they were not in the way when doing so. I didn't have much of a problem. I agree the stats suck because they never released them or were very inaccrat. When my front players out shoot my back players.

Pretty sure Chicago's stats were a deathblow to the whole idea, they made no sense. I started to have my doubts when they claimed the hiccup was due to a "faulty data cable".

I don't fault NPPL for giving it a try, just Virtue a little bit for selling something they weren't ready to support on a large scale like that. I still think it's a good idea and would be disappointed if they just pulled the plug on the entire idea instead of trying to fix what's broken. Hopefully we didn't jump through all those hoops for 2 tournaments of inaccurate stats.
